Searching and highlighting a paragraph

[dineshzende]

Hello Authors!
Let me first thank your wonderful creation. It has helped us and reduced our efforts.
I am new to the usage of this library. I am actually looking for searching a paragraph and highlighting it. But I can only be able to search and highlight the text on one line. If the search text is spread over multiple lines, it is not showing the results.

• I tried inserting '\n' and '\r' in the search string, but it didn't work.
  Can you please help me in understanding how to search text spread on multiple lines (paragraph) ?
